I guess It just makes it more sad that even with 2.9 demo points leave after GOT that only the Mentalist can grow out of its lead inSpothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-24796012499493285762014-05-07T15:22:02.501-04:002014-05-07T15:22:02.501-04:00You can't look at it that way.

GoT is megahit, it's above Scandal nowadays, and bellow only The Walking Dead among dramas.<br /><br />It would be like expecting every lead-out gets 4s out of TBBT 5s. Or, even more ridicolous, to expect lead-out of Sunday afternoon football game gets 6s or 7s out of game's 9s. It's different with megahits, it's not reasonable to expect good retention out of those rare beasts. Especially on cable networks that produce like only dozen of shows a year. They don't get to pick lead-out among 50+ shows like big 4 do.<br /><br /><br /><br />Sillicon Valley is actually doing well, Veep get 0.6s out of high 2s GoT lead-in last spring, so this is improvement.Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-84630193860750344772014-05-07T09:43:24.650-04:002014-05-07T09:43:24.650-04:00If there was a true for cable, I feel like Silicon...If there was a true for cable, I feel like Silicon Valley would be wrecked by it. It's competely compatible with the skew of its lead in and loses almost 3/4ths of it. And broadcast competiton is all like 1.3, 1.2, 1.0 so its not like it has a good reasonSpothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-17990017211895177942014-05-05T12:47:11.054-04:002014-05-05T12:47:11.054-04:00That Lego episode of the Simpsons seems like somet...That Lego episode of the Simpsons seems like something that could have really spiked after a super short OT in the fall.

I was thinking low 1's and maybe even .8 range if they swapped Revenge back by the end. Worst case scenario ABC had a great 8 episode miniseries and performed much better than Revenge wouldSpothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-22064080536733627702014-05-05T11:34:05.317-04:002014-05-05T11:34:05.317-04:00I think ABC lineup was preempted on the East Coast...I think ABC lineup was preempted on the East Coast for a NBA game. For 15 minutes only, but still.<br />It might explain AFHV tying season high, probably it had better lead-in than usual. It also means OUAT is likely to be adjusted up in finals, while Resurrection might be adjusted down. Tick up or down, really doesn't matter at this point of the season, I'm just saying.Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.com
